Is there a better ending to your Disney World day than watching the Magic Kingdom fireworks? I don’t think so!
Happily Ever After
Spring is here, and there are a lot of changes in Disney World. We have EPCOT’s International Flower and Garden Festival happening, rides going down for refurbishment, and more. There is also a change coming to the nightly fireworks at Magic Kingdom. If going to watch Happily Ever After is on your Disney World itinerary, read this before heading to the castle.
On Sunday, March 8th, Happily Ever After is changing its time. It’s usually at 9 PM, but will be at 9:30 PM on March 8th. This is likely due to the time change that also occurs on March 8th. Then, starting April 19th, the time will shift even later to 10 PM.

The times for Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away, the new nighttime parade at Magic Kingdom, are also changing. Until March 7th, there were two times this parade ran at 7:45 PM and 10 PM. Beginning March 8th, it shifts to just once at 8:15 PM. Then on March 12th, it goes to two times at 8:15 PM and 10:30 PM.
Disney Starlight — Whimsy!
When there is only one Starlight parade, guests will want to plan to grab a spot early! This is a popular parade, and with there only being one chance per night to catch it, it’s going to become crowded. If you don’t mind not watching the parade on Main Street, we suggest watching it in Frontierland for less crowds.

I don’t think it’s a trip to Magic Kingdom without staying and watching the fireworks, and if you agree, make sure to keep an eye on the Disney World app to avoid missing the best fireworks show. In the meantime, make sure you’re following Disney Food Blog for more!
